The best way to support us is to come along to our concerts!
Friends Of The RSO
Our Friends of the RSO scheme allows you to support the orchestra and enjoy our principal concerts at a reduced price. Benefits include:
-
Tickets to three RSO concerts (November, March and June) at a reduced total price;
-
A generous discount for our Reading Sinfonietta chamber concert in the summer;
-
Your support acknowledged in our programmes.
This year, becoming a Friend costs a minimum of £38 (£32 concessions), saving you over 15% on the full price. To reserve season tickets, please contact us at tickets@rso.org.uk
Sponsorship
The RSO welcomes all offers of support from businesses and individuals, from sponsoring an entire concert to meeting a smaller cost, such as printing of programmes or flowers for a soloist. All donations can be acknowledged in our programmes.
We are grateful to Dexter Montague LLP for regularly sponsoring our concerts for many years.
Mailing List
We operate postal and electronic mailing lists which allow us to keep you up to date with our latest news and to let you know when concert tickets go on sale. To add your details to either list, please contact us at tickets@rso.org.uk
Orchestra Hire
The RSO’s musicians are available for your own events. For example we can provide:
-
A full orchestra to accompany choral concerts.
-
A chamber orchestra for church festivals.
-
A small chamber group for a reception.
-
A short concert at a celebratory or corporate dinner (such as a St George’s Day “Prom”).
